Ahead of his New Zealand concert tour in Christchurch, Wellington and Auckland, international artist Teddy Swims joined More FM to surprise one lucky High School in Canterbury.
Students were told they had a ‘last minute assembly’ they had to attend. Little did they know it was Teddy Swims performing live at their school.
After the students packed out the auditorium, the sign “Teddy Swims Live” was revealed, with the students in disbelief, giving Teddy and his entire band a warm welcome.
Teddy performed his well-known song Lose Control, followed by his most recent song The Door, and then soon took questions from students.
Amidst the frenzy for photos, one student even asked Teddy about his favorite color, to which he responded “Pink. They used to say only Girls like Pink, but I like Girls”
Speaking with Speedy and Bondy from The Breakfast Club after the performance at the School, Teddy expressed how insane it was to see the students have such fandom for his team
“My pianist JJ had to sprint to the van – they all chased him. It reminded me of how we were about the Jonas Brothers when I was their age”
Teddy expressed his appreciation for New Zealand, recalling how the Kiwis showed him love at the start, especially after his first cover of Michael Jackson in 2019.
“That was like my first ever audience, right here in New Zealand. This is my favourite place in the world because of that”
Teddy also discussed Tall Poppy Syndrome, encouraging everyone to be true to themselves,
“If your gut and heart telling you that you need to do something, If you don't do what you are supposed to do with your life then you are robbing of a blessing that only you can give them”
